I'm jealous you get to see Roberto Bolle dance

Has Julie Kent had her baby yet? I think she is due this month.

Along with Katrina, I am very jealous that you will be seeing Roberto dance! Can't wait to read about his performance and in-store appearance.

Oh my gosh, I didn't know she was having another baby! (I always use that picture of her in Giselle because I love it so much). I wondered where she was!

I just realized I'm going to be reading from my novel on the 16th, so I'm not going to be able to see him at the book signing. Am going to try to find someone who is going though and get them to report back :)

You have an insanely busy week coming up! Good luck...I will say a prayer for you that you are able to handle it or find someone to help you out if you need it! Make sure to still enjoy it! :o)

Hi Tonya,

We found your blog and love it, particularly the notes on your life as a dancer and thought you might be interested in the Headlong Performance Institute (HPI) [http://www.headlongperformanceinstitute.org/], or may know of others who would be. HPI is a pre-professional training program in Philadelphia and we're accepting applications for the Fall '09 semester. Our next application deadline is June 15th and we'll be notifying applicants by June 19th.

How will you know if the Headlong Performance Institute is a good fit for you? You don't have to be a dancer, an actor or formal artist to enjoy learning how to push your inner elements. And if you're not frightened silly at the prospect of exploring the corners of these very elements, then this may just be the challenge you're looking for.

Headlong Performance Institute is where professionals working on the cutting edge of American experimental theater and dance work with students in a small group setting to learn about movement, collaborative creative spaces and how to tune your body and mind to be your most creative.

The program is open to undergrads (for credit, the semester counts as 300- or 400- level courses through Bryn Mawr College) and post-bac students and is based in South Philadelphia. All program expenses (except living expenses) are included in tuition and include tickets to performances throughout the semester, throughout the Philadelphia area.

For more information please visit our website at http://www.headlongperformanceinstitute.org and get in touch. We want to hear from you!

Sincerely,
Rose Luardo
